So, I’ve given several two week notices throughout my career. Unfortunately, I recently had to give one over the phone instead of in person. I only report to one guy and he was on vacation. I could have just given it to HR but that would have felt scummy. I called him and gave him my notice then sent him a letter of resignation. Feels bad man. Anyone else ever have to give a two week notice in an awkward/unfortunate way?
The safest is to line up other business first, go straight to HR and tell them today is your last day to get instructions for returning equipment, and NEVER talk to anyone about why you’re leaving, where you’re going, or anything. Say as little as possible and don’t say goodbye to anyone. NEVER provide any feedback because it won’t change anything and can only be used against you. Process the pain of change on your own.
